Headed towards Rockland/ Owl's Head tomorrow

Recommended Posts

ebinmaine

Trina and I are headed north in the morning to stay at the campground this weekend for the Owl's Head Transportation Museum annual truck and tractor show weekend.

 

@JCM Jim you have my number.

FYI.. we'll be having a picnic lunch and we'd be happy to have you and your wife share.

 

If anyone else is planning to attend we'd love to see you.

Feel free to PM me.

 

Cinnamon is loaded on the trailer and Pony will be in the morning.

 

Pics to follow......

  Are you expecting the same “hot as heck” temps as we are in southern New England? I’m going to a show Saturday here in Connecticut with a forecast of 98 plus degrees and wicked humidity.

Close but we'll have an ocean breeze.

That should keep us down to a paltry 88°.

:occasion-snowman:

Hey Eric!   Travel safely, bud.

 

By the way, if you ever invite me over for a picnic lunch I like Limburger and braunschweiger on rye with a side of pickled red cabbage and a tall, icy cold, Miller High Life.   Just in case you're asking.....

 

Cheers!

That sounds like a recipe for an “explosion” a few hours later...if you get my DRIFT!:ROTF:

 

Eric and Trina...have a great time and stay hydrated.  It is supposed to be about 98 here and quite humid today as well.  I can’t wait to see pics from the show.  Please remember to tell us what people think of your horses...

Campground we're staying  is right on the rocky coast of the Atlantic.

I'm making my boiled coffee and Listening to the big diesel engine of a lobster boat it goes by checking its traps this morning.

 

Here's a shot of the campground as a whole.

I wonder if it would be faster to drive the tractors over to the show from the campsite:auto-layrubber:

 

:D

Thanks for the sweet pics and description already...I’ll be watching for pics from the show later today/tomorrow!

Well everyone we had a fantastic time at the show today. I'll try to get some more pictures downloaded but the service here is not very fast so it may not be until tomorrow.

So impressive and amazing how many people are drawn to these little tractors.

People at the campground looking at them. People in parking lots at the stores looking at them. Many people at the show.

Trina was an absolute hit!

When I told the people looking at the tractors who was the one who did much of the work, they were all that much more impressed.

On our way back from the Truck And Tractor Show to the campground, we were in 2  lane traffic and a guy on my left beeped at me and we were yelling through the windows on our way down the road about how he has one of these Wheelhorses!

:D

Pictured below is what I think is an 854? That is owned by somebody who is tied to the museum somehow.
